"He'll be the only candidate left when Hillary goes to prison For what? some lesbian sex ![]() why do you do it? No, not other secretaries of state, but why should that make any difference? Other than maybe she should get a longer sentence | |||

"He'll be the only candidate left when Hillary goes to prison For what? some lesbian sex ![]() Because people in power tend to get away with things that others wouldn't. I'm not saying it should be that way, but thats the way it seems to be. | |||

"He'll be the only candidate left when Hillary goes to prison For what? some lesbian sex ![]() True. And in the USA apparently it is difficult to convict someone for a crime like this who is cerebrally incompetent | |||

"Perhaps she will croak before the election then? Something strange is going on there, she has been covering up serious neurological illness for some time now. A couple of wobbles caught on camera and they are talking about her not getting over her brain tumer op, having epilepsy, and even Parkinsonism. Of course the real conspiracy theorists "have proof" that the real witch is dead, ding dong, and what we are seeing on TV is a couple of her doppelgängers." She doesn't have " serious neurological illness". All she had was a clot as a result of a fall . It was cleared. All the nonsense " proving"'that she has one of several neurological issues is just so much bunkum. You can easily deliberately misinterpret photos and videos enough that the foolish will believe. | |||

"If he is trying to win he has a funny way of going about it.........A feeble mind and a lot of bluster do not a president make....... ![]() ![]() how do you know? As Trump said, what have you got to lose? The Democrats look at the black vote with contempt, take it for granted and do nothing for them. They don't think they need to, they are guaranteed votes in the bag. A bit like the way Labour treat the traditional Labour voters in the UK. It is the feeble minded who vote the same way time after time in the hope that things will get better for them when they never do. If nothing else the referendum in the UK has proved that people can change things and hopefully people have become less feeble minded | |||

"If he is trying to win he has a funny way of going about it.........A feeble mind and a lot of bluster do not a president make....... ![]() ![]() Well it's 4 years since I last lived in the US so it may have changed; but it was clear then who was better off and when and why. I think the UK referendum did nothing but to prove exactly how feeble minded, ill educated, uninformed and easily led the UK population has become. The level of ignorance of basic realities is frightening. | |||

Of impoverishment through protectionism? Of a declining share of world growth? Of the impending collapse of the Euro and economic disaster? Of policies that create a rise in far right sentiment? And on and on. I am glad to be ignorant of those realites then, are you? | |||

"If he is trying to win he has a funny way of going about it.........A feeble mind and a lot of bluster do not a president make....... ![]() ![]() Show me where I said that you, as a BREXITer were ignorant of these things: What I said , if you care to actually read anything ( and more importantly, understand what you read; ) is that there is a shocking lack, across the UK , of understanding of world events, of politics, international and national economics, trade, even how the UK political system works. As for the understanding of different nations and their ways of life and ways of thinking and behaviour..... When I compare UK to many other countries that I have lived in, the level of ignorance is alarming. There is only one other country of the many I have lived in, where the level of ignorance is so low; that is the USA. | |||

I visit the US four or five times a year staying anything from 2 - 5 weeks at a time. Very few Americans have passports and the overall level of knowledge of world affairs is really quite poor. One (albeit outsider) Predidential candidate was humiliated on TV by not knowing a single overseas leader and never having heard of Aleppo. The various news channels have really drilled down into the demographics of the voter patterns and whilst of course it is a broad generalisation, the backbone of the Trump vote is white and not college educated. These are people who feel that they are entitled to better than what they have got and who yearn back to better times without actually knowing, or caring how it is achieved. Trump appeals to them because he empathises with their anger and, like them he suggests that the answers are simple without actually providing any meaningful economic policies. That said, this morning, USA Today has for the first time in its history, printed an editorial that slams Trump as an unfit person to hold the highest office. The message is finally getting through. | |||

Austin is about the more liberal college town.... and the rest of it tends to be staunchly republican.... you wonder if trump went on the attack of this woman (and remember he has let this basically fester since monday) to cover over all the allegations about the trump foundation... and the allegations about his taxes, and the illegal deals with cuba.... well and truely under his skin... the 5am tweets were unbelievable.... its like we are going thru the stuff with the khan family all over again... someone really needs to take his phone away... all hillary has to do at the moment is poke and jab at him... he is unravelling before our eyes.... I have always said i don't think he actually wants to win.... but keep it close enough to cry foul | |||

There are highly educated people world wide and a vast amount of knowledge in USA, for both of you to sit on a swingers forum and tell us all how their overall level of knowledge of world affairs is really quite poor draws me to one conclusion, you chose the wrong people to chat to. . I don't want to say your full of shit, but after reading that post, it makes me wonder. A fairly anticipated type of response from you. Let's just say then that from your limited experience in Houston it is different to my broader experiences in the Mid West (various cities), Charlotte, Atlanta, Tampa, Miama, Fort Lauderdale (and north) and New York. In other words, your BULLSHIT experience from one environment is not reflective of the country as a whole. And yes, I do meet with people of all demographic levels. Today I have a lunch meeting with a large Developer and banking contacts in Pompano Beach and earlier this week I was at Title Attorney conference in Columbus. Add to that that I/we now directly employ 23 people and I think that I can personally and from direct experience call bullshit on your predictably aggressive response. you have mentioned 6 locations, you should scroll back up to the top and read the 6th sentence, and within each state I have stopped in many towns, although always returning to Jackson Hole. again I continue to call "bullshit" to your comments, and you talk about the amount of time you spend in NY, I recall a few weeks back you saying that, and yet every hour of these days you were chatting on this forum . as they say on "still game" I smell shite. have a nice day now, and remember all your comments have time stamps ![]() There are plenty of people on this forum who I know from Xtasia and Chams who know exactly what I do and where I conduct my business. I don't need to explain myself to someone who hasn't even been seen outside his own home. | |||
